Wheels
Quote:
British pressed steel wheels that were very similar to standard pre-war civilian car wheels, but had 6 nuts. These are quite sought after. There was a truly lightweight version used on the original "airborne" trailers as pictured above and another seemingly identical type that was actually slightly heavier gauge steel. There was also a much heavier slit rim version, again with 6 nuts securing wheel to hub that I believe was a post-war development. Photos of British Lightweight wheels:
